Iraq - Market Monitor Report: Issue No. 5, December 2016
-
As the Mosul offensive entered its third month, new waves of displacement led to an increased demand in Kirkuk governorate. Returns in Anbar are also challenging markets which have however been able to absorb the demand shocks.
-
The cost of the food basket decreased by 6% at national level. The situation normalized after two months in Kirkuk showing the ability of the market to adjust to the increased demand of IDPs.
-
The purchasing power of population living in hotspot locations is still 20% lower than in the rest of the country.
-
Food is now available in all areas monitored by WFP, including liberated areas in Mosul. The high prices in Hawija make food inaccessible for the most vulnerable. Key informants reported security concerns in Tarmia and still feel unsafe in Falluja and Heet.
-
Next month’s bulletin (January) will cover Mosul city in depth.
